why should he do it? he probably does not need that kind of money...
If he is ideologically motivated..... then may be... Maybe he forgot his password. Probably why the coins have never moved ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) . If that's the case, then even less BTCs are in circulation and the value of BTC increases further! Probably be a good idea if the coins never get spent or our put into circulation. Dumping those coins all at once could put Bitcoin back to where it started from, but maybe people might see that as fair for everyone else, not so much people who have paid a lot of money for the coins though ahaha

Hey all,
I have been watching these new crypto market and it seems new cryptocoins are coming back to life like Diamond (DMD), and other are poping up like cherries almost everyday. I understand that people want to get into this new "mania" and profit for a short term or for the long run if the coin pleases the public!
So my question is how easy is to just create a website with a pretty frontpage / home and some links to download wallets, sources, forums, mining pools, some backing up partner to promote the coin and etc.?
Is it worth the effort? It can be, but do we really need a new coin? Just look at them all: http://www.wheretomine.com/. Unless you can think of a unique idea for a coin, I really don't think any more are needed. A lot of coins fail because they put little to no effort or development behind them. Coins need communities and merchants willing to accept them, otherwise they just fizzle out.

Hmmmm takes a long tome to become a member....
Not that long, you've just got to patiently bide your time / put in a bit of work and then it's worth it. I'm down to less than a minute posting time now. the 360 second rule is tedious and annoying though, but it's there for a reason.

Much as it grieves me to hold ebay up as a model, but if I want something from ebay I go to ebay.co.uk first, only if I can't find it do I look in ebay.com. It's a simple request, why would anyone resist it?
This isn't ebay. There are ebay-like Bitcoin markets though. I'm from the UK and usually just put UK in the title if it fits, but I ship most stuff worldwide. If we have a board for UK-ers, then I'm sure all other countries will want their own and so on.

Why not installing a good automaticDouble Account Detection, eg. one Flash-Cookie-based? It would detect 95% of these idiots, because they don't know about Flash Cookies.
Having multiple accounts isn't disallowed.

99% of alt-coins will never be used to buy anything.
They're used for trading for other alts and that's all most of these coins are currently used for at the moment. I was surprised that Sexcoin has actually got some merchants to accept it, so some of them to become worth something, and that's what people are banking on.

are you sure it's stupidity? you could just make this shit up and sell your story to some media outlet. so many ways a playa can play the game.
Something tells me this guy isn't a master of chicanery. ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.nottinghampost.com%2Fimages%2Flocalworld%2Fugc-images%2F276368%2FArticle%2Fimages%2F20267041%2F5587461-large.jpg&t=663&c=gkuAl7io7bsNVg) But then again: Mr Clatworthy previously made headlines in 2007 when, aged 12, he used his judo skills to catch a drink-driver who had crashed into three cars in Ilkeston Road, Radford . Maybe he's a master at courting the press for his own gain. Another conspiracy? Great! We surely did not have enough of those on btctalk! But I tend to agree. I had tons of quasi-important stuff to share with the media in my life, but they ignored me. But stories like that go viral. Do you simply call some newspaper and say "I'm a dumb fuck, exploit my life story" and they say "okay, we sure have nothing else to do" ? Another similar story is the guy who allegedly threw his hard-drive with his bitcoins he'd mined a couple of years ago in the trash. There was no evidence that he had even minded the coins apart from his story and the media was having a field day with it. EDIT: in that pic he reminds me of Jean Reno from Leon/Professional
I didn't see it before, but he kinda does.

Self-moderation seems especially bad in the altcoin section. A new coin maker can delete all the criticism of their coin and in the worst possible case delete people warning of a virus in the code during the coin release rush.
Yeah, it shouldn't be allowed in forums like this for sure. On a whole I'd say self-moderation isn't a good idea and is abused more than not.

This drone situation is compounded by the fact that drugs are coming over the border via drones, now. How long till one of these cartels (probably the Sinaloa cartel) dress up a drone with an Amazon banner? It's not a stretch, they already operate fully-submersible subs.
I'm sure I read an article somewhere that drugs cartels had already tried or are doing this over the boarder. It's briefly mentioned here: http://newstalk870.am/mexican-drug-cartels-using-drones-to-scout-border-crossings/Not sure how much drugs those tiny Amazon drones could carry though.

Some of us are legit ebay sellers with long positive sales histories... And selling on ebay is our only job because we want to be self employed and not be someone elses b!&*#.
You can always sell on here or on localbitcoins, but obviously you're not going to get the inflated premium prices people pay on ebay. Yeah, ebay/paypal needs to get their act together and change their system, but until they do the risk of being scammed is the risk you take.

Maybe i have too much faith in the bitcoin forum, but i honestly expected better. Im betting the better members just havnt commented and weve so far manager to drum up the sludge from the bottom of the bucket, Well done sludge.
(sludge, you know who you are)
What do you expect when a picture of a half-naked woman gets posted on an internet message board? The virgins get jealous and call her a slut and the pervs get pervy. Any 'respectable' members will probably just stay away... or at least just quietly jack off to themselves.

I keep telling you - divide your bitcoins across different services/exchanges/wallets and you will be spared these dumb mistakes
Or just double check you don't send a 20BTC transaction fee.

I hope we get some Bitcoin ATM machines here in the uk next year. That would really help promotion and legitimise it with the public.
I'm hoping for this also. I haven't heard any definite plans for any, but surely a few must pop up in 2014. Does anyone know where you buy them from? https://lamassu.is/ $5,000 each for the lamassu ones. I've heard this one only works one way Does it let you sell them or buy them? And can you buy them with bitcoins I've no idea. Check the website or email them.

call the police!!!
I think the problem with this idea is that OP has a conscience otherwise he would have surely done this already. Calling the fuzz is a last resort and is unnecessary unless he doesn’t heed my polite request. is that what brits call the police? is that what hot fuzz was supposed to mean? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eMtMAxWbJ2I&list=PL5570F3D2B341B707You can always ask him, you'd be surprised how well it can work out.
Then there's your landlord to go to.
We own the house and his grandparents own theirs.

Difficult but not impossible. Real altruism takes effort. Some miners have given back mistakenly sent fees before I think. Maybe he can get some coins back.
